Mimi Sue's Cottage

A home is much more than a house built of lumber, brick, or stone. A home is made of love, sacrifice, and respect. We are responsible for the homes we build. We must build wisely, for eternity is not a short voyage. There will be calm and wind, sunlight and shadows, joy and sorrow. But if we really try, our home can be a bit of heaven here on earth.Thomas S Monson

Window Framed Flag

I'm still working on that shelf to hang my new cute banner. We've got the shed building going on so I have a hard time getting my laundry done let alone visit blogs or work on cute things. I did want to show you what we made a while back but just got hung this morning. We have a glass/window shop in our little town (Sander's Glass) that sells old windows. They put in the new, fancy, good for the environment windows and take out the old cute ones. They sell the windows for $10.00 each. No matter what size. Love it. So I bought a window about flag size and wrapped it around a piece of beadboard.Then I held it in place with little finishing nails. This tool is from Harbor Freight (years ago). It pushes the nails into the wood. I don't know what it's called but it sure works great.

That is so cool. I gotta get a window. I bought my first one the other day in a antic store in Logon Utah. I haven't finished it yet. Send me your user name and I'll invite you to my blog. Love you porch.

http://oldcentennialfarmhouse.blogspot.com/2009/06/garage-sale-goodness_09.htmlThere is a flag in this post that I would love to frame...a mini quilt flag. THANKS SO MUCH for the excellent idea. I didn't just want to put it out there in the weather but it's perfect for my red, white and blue porch! I love your little goat cart with the flowers in it, too!XOXOJoni

Mimi Su! I love that window.. in response to your question on the vanity tray mirrors... I take them totally apart and then spray paint - much easier! Hope you are doing well.. thanks for stopping by to see me - i always love hearing from ya!

About Mimi

I am a wife and mom of four, "Mimi" of seven. I live in a brand new house in an old historic neighborhood. We are finishing the house and yard, and trying to adjust to retirement. I love to thrift and go to yard sales. I love to cook, garden, stitch, think up projects for the mister, and play with the grandbabies.
